Busy Lives!

Excuse Me Mother as I'm on the clock"

I wont listen as I'm on Tick Tock

"Call back later I may fit you in"

For now I'm dancing a lovely routine


We seem to have such Busy Lives

Your voice it cuts just like a knife

"I must be heading out of town

Your calls and questions get me down"


While your Young and have your Toys

That mobile that you so enjoy

Reading, Writing and talkin too

Are as important to me as should be for you


"I'll call You when I make it home"

Your in my bag  here on my phone

 "I will check my phone's Incoming Mail"

Once I've filed, painted and shaped my nails


Sorry again "I'm ending this call"

The shops are closing in the Mall

Reading your Text takes too much time

"Don't bully Me Its such a crime"


"I really don't know My Daughter Dear

So listen up and hear me clear"!

Before A.I re-wrote the code

Our lives were simple "No overload"


While your Young and have your Toys

That mobile that you so enjoy

Reading, Writing and talkin too

Are as important to me as should be for you


"Well I cant believe Mother that's all you had" ?

 Postage stamps, Pens and writing pads"

I would have hated living back then

When every day you walked to your Friends


Finding that they were not home

And walking back once more alone

Life with Fashion, Record stores too

Must have been boringly simple for you?


No it was great, Staying out late

Street light told us so goodnight Mate

Staying out in the street not a good idea

As local Bobby clipped your ear


While your Young and have your Toys

That mobile that you so enjoy

Reading, Writing and talkin too

Are as important to me as should be for you


Its not like that anymore

We fought the bullies in two world wars

Time moves on and Happy or Sad

We admire the past" The good and bad"


This chat has seemed pointless

Not worthy of Me 

We have one thing in common

Please cant you see


While your Young and have your Toys

That mobile that you so enjoy

Reading, Writing and talkin too

Are as important to me as should be for you


Agree to disagree maybe once more

Freedom of choice a decision I'm sure

Just Text, Talk or call me when you can see

Its easier than fighting" Cant You See?


Cest la vie Cest la vie Cest la vie


Its easier than fighting" Cant You See?
